Very pleased. The 2 5ah batteries heat up quite a lot. Might need to purchase some 6ah batteries. Happy with the tool though. Durk Walsma

Seems to be reasonably well made, compares well with all the other Makita gear I have. However, it does not perform as well as a petrol or mains powered chain saws. Do not expect to 'wellie' it through a tree trunk. Comparison between a run or a walk in the park - this is definitely a walk. Adequate for the odd small job that does not warrant getting the petrol one out and is too far from a power point.

Carried out cutting of 8" to 12" pine logs and chainsaw performed very well with low noise so not disturbing neighbours.

Hi Mark, Thank you for taking the time to leave your review, we value all customer feedback. We're very surprised to hear this as a fully charged 5ah 18v LXT battery usually operates for 45 minutes. If the battery is only lasting 2 minutes it could suggest that a fault may be present. It may also indicate that the work you are carrying out is not suitable for the product. If you would like to discuss matters further, please contact our dedicated customer support team; https://www.powertoolworld.co.uk/contact/
